hey folks. in the middle of getting the trailer ready to rumble and need some comments. tailgate is in, spare mount is in. the question now is siderail height. I am going with 1.25" box side rails running full length and welding raingutters on them so I can mount a yakima rack and mount the tent to that (I don't want permanent crossrails). The issue is how high to go off above the bed. The yakima towers will add 6-7" in height so I am thinking the siderails should be about 18" above the top of the bed. What do folks think? I do not want to be top heavy but I would like as much room as I can for a possible lid underneath.
and here is the progress so far. Steve at EBI cruisers is doing the work and it is looking beefy! i have made a trade for a stock spare so I am going to stick with stock wheels and at most do an SOA or more likely a modest shackle extension.
